The conversation highlights the importance of involving team members in decision-making processes for significant change initiatives, because people value what they help create.

Find Show Notes Here Dr. Dale Farran has spent the better part of the last 50 years researching early childhood education.  But some of her most famous research has come about rather recently, as she directs the evaluation of the Tennessee Voluntary PreK Program.  This study is one of the most fascinating pieces of recent research in early childhood education. With a randomly controlled trial, Farran's team found that after an initial PreK year, children who participated scored higher than children who didn't. After the two groups converged for their kindergarten year, however, that difference disappeared.  That's not too surprising – a “fade out” effect is often observed in early childhood research.  Where this study really started making waves was with the follow-up data.  After the participating children completed their third-grade year, Farran and her team found that the PreK group actually scored *below* the other children on the math and science sections of their standardized tests  - and by statistically significant margins.  By the sixth-grade year, more alarm bells sounded.  The PreK participants were scoring below the nonparticipants on not only math and science (and by a greater factor than was seen in third grade) but now, also on English language arts as well.  Perhaps more concerning, they were also getting in more trouble at school and receiving more expulsions. While some may have been tempted to bury unexpected results, Dr. Farran and her team decided to get curious and ask what could be learned.  The rest of us get to make the same choice – ignore the research, or get curious and find something to learn.

Notes del programa En aquest episodi parlem de sintaxi per resoldre un dels dubtes més habituals, tant entre aprenents com entre nadius: la preposició a davant de complement de persona. Ens en sortirem? Som-hi! Taller de llengua L'ús de la preposició a davant de complement directe de persona (https://www.esadir.cat/gramatica/sintaxi/prepacompdir) (portal lingüístic ésAdir) L'expressió de la setmana de gom a gom ('ple de gent', aplicat a espais ocupats per persones, com ara carrers, places, sales de cinema, teatre, etc.) Transcripció Andreu: [0:17] Bon dia, Sílvia! Sílvia: [0:17] Bon dia, Andreu! Andreu: [0:18] Escolta, han passat moltes coses últimament que hem de comentar. Sílvia: [0:21] Ah, sí? A veure, què ha passat? Andreu: [0:25] Per exemple, doncs ahir, dia 28 de maig, van ser les eleccions municipals. Suposo que vas anar a votar. Sílvia: [0:31] Sí. Andreu: [0:31] Bé, avui no parlarem de política, però ha sigut, doncs, una cosa important. Jo penso que anar a votar és… és molt important, encara que cap de les opcions polítiques que hi ha t'entusiasmi especialment, però com a mínim dir-hi la teva, no? O intentar que altres opcions no tinguin tant de suport. Sílvia: [0:48] Jo crec que és important anar a votar perquè si no vas a votar l'únic que estàs fent és recolzar el que diuen els altres. Andreu: [0:55] Exacte. No? I que a més, si no vas a votar després no et pots queixar. Sílvia: 0:57 (Bé), queixar, et pots queixar sempre! Andreu: [1:00] No, però, a veure, no és lícit, o sigui… Si tu no decideixes, després t'has d'adaptar, t'has de conformar amb el que… amb el resultat i amb les coses que passin, no? I aquí queixar-se és un esport nacional i jo no hi vull renunciar. D'acord. Bé, ja més endavant parlarem de… de política en un episodi. Una altra cosa. Fa poc, eh… bé, aquest cap de setmana passat, vaig anar a Lleida i un amic meu d'allà escolta el pòdcast. Sílvia: [1:30] Ah, molt bé! Andreu: [1:32] Sí, i això que ell no és aprenent de català, ell és nadiu, però… Sílvia: [1:36] Escolta, doncs benvingut, siguin tots els nadius. Andreu: [1:38] Sí, una salutació des d'aquí, Farran. Doncs ell escolta el nostre pòdcast i ell és turistòleg o turismòleg, em sembla que es pot dir de les dos maneres. Va estudiar Turisme a Lleida, no? I coneix bé la ciutat i li agrada fer-ne promoció. Doncs aquest cap de setmana em va fer una guia turística, una visita, per Lleida, per veure diferents murals que hi ha per tota la ciutat. I és que, en l'episodi de l'art, vam parlar dels murals aquests i jo et vaig dir que… que a Lleida n'hi ha un d'unes cigonyes. Sílvia: [2:07] Sí. Andreu: [2:08] No? Que és molt gran i això. Doncs el que jo no sabia és que n'hi havia molts més per la ciutat i de preciosos, o sigui, són… són brutals. Sílvia: [2:16] Jo sí que ho sabia, perquè crec que fa pocs mesos, a més a més, van fer un festival de… d'art, no sé si es diu de grafitis o de murals de paret o no ho sé… [Sí, d'art urbà.] Art urbà, això. Art urbà. I en van fer uns quants de nous. I llavors vaig veure com havien quedat, però per internet, eh?, no els he anat a veure. Andreu: [2:35] Doncs jo no ho coneixia i ara ho he descobert. O sigui, sí que n'havia vist algun més, de mural, però l'altre dia en vaig veure uns quants i, la veritat, val la pena visitar-los i suposo que també deu ser molt interessant veure com els fan en directe, no? I aquest festival que has dit es diu _potFest. Sílvia: [2:52] Exacte, sí! Andreu: [2:55] Lleida potFest. Ara ja l'han fet, aquest any, va ser entre el març i l'abril, si no m'equivoco, però en principi el fan cada any. Llavors, doncs mira, és una activitat més per fer a la ciutat de Lleida, no? I a més, és bonic, doncs, encara que no hi vagis pel potFest, fer una ruta per la ciutat per veure, no?, els diferents murals, que la veritat, valen molt la pena. Sílvia: [3:15] És una cosa que s'ha posat bastant de moda, no només a Lleida, sinó a d'altres poblacions del territori, per embellir aquelles parets que potser no ho eren tant. [Clar.] I és una cosa que m'agrada molt, la veritat.

Howard's Best Advice for a Successful Career in DentistryEpisode #567 with Dr. Howard FarranAn A in dental school is an A in dental school. Without learning about business, you won't have a successful practice. To help you think better about the business side of dentistry, Kirk Behrendt brings in Dr. Howard Farran, founder and owner of Dentaltown, to offer some of his best advice for a successful career in dentistry. To hear Dr. Farran's insights and to learn what dental school never taught you, listen to Episode 567 of The Best Practices Show!Episode Resources:Dr. Farran's website: https://www.howardfarran.comDr. Farran's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HowardFarranDr. Farran's social media: @howardfarranDentaltown: https://www.dentaltown.comSubscribe to the Best Practices Show PodcastJoin ACT's To The Top Study ClubJoin ACT's Master ClassSee our Live Events Schedule hereGet the Best Practices Magazine for Free!Write a Review on iTunesLinks Mentioned in This Episode:Uncomplicate Business: All It Takes Is People , Time, And Money by Dr. Howard Farran: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/uncomplicate-business-howard-farran/1120331563Main Takeaways:Your practice is a business. Learn about business.Learn about demographics before starting your practice.There's no “good” time to start your business. Just start now.Audit the people, especially the dentists, you choose to be around.You're not a doctor of everything. Learn to delegate things you're bad at.Spend and invest wisely! Bad spending habits will be the source of your stress.Quotes:“If you get an A in business and you're a horrible dentist, you'll be a millionaire. If you're the best dentist in Kansas City and you don't know anything about business, you're going to have a very miserable career. You have to learn business when you live in capitalism, especially somewhere like the United States.” (4:45—5:01)“Demographics is the most important thing [to learn]. I'd say in the last ten years, every time I see a kid come out of school and they do $1 million the first year and put $350,000 take-home, they always went to a town of 5,000 and they're the only dentist. A lot of them went to a town of 2,500. But you see in Arizona, where we have two schools, every kid thinks that if they go to North Scottsdale where all the rich people live, that's where they would make the most money. And in 2008, when we had the economic collapse, I think Arizona had like 74 or 76 dental offices go under. Half of them were in North Scottsdale. And when I opened up in Phoenix, Arizona, the town south of me, Maricopa, which is a 30-minute drive, did not have a...

Interestingly he was a freemason. Not going down that path today, but it does seem to come up a lotShould I have saved this for st patrick's day? Maybe. Eventually it was taken over by john jameson jrThen john jameson the thirdThen it gets less fun and we move onto his son robert and so on and so forth, but this isn't about whiskey really The first john jameson's grandson, of which he had many I'm sure, the dude had eight kids. A man by the name of James Jameson. James jameson's middle name was slygo which is kind of silly in itself. I think that's a town in ireland. Anyway. James had a ton of money to burn, being an heir to the aforementioned whiskey fortune, and the heart of an adventurer.  He tagged along with various expeditions to south america, the pacific islands and africa, dude was living a cool ass life compared to other irishmen that sat around on the island.He ended up giving a bunch of his big game trophies to the british museum, which is kinda fun given how much we talked about them last weekIn January of 1887 he joined an expedition led by a henry morton stanley, a welsh american explorer. It was on this expedition that James would face terrible trials. He would have been canceled today for sure. He had to apply against a few other hundred naturalists or africa enthusiasts for the spot on the expedition, tossing a 1000 pound tip in with his application certainly helped. That's 168,000 pounds in today's money or about 200,000 dollars. I imagine that helped.This expedition, the emin pasha relief expedition, to provide supplies to a besieged diplomat in the congo,Ordered by leopold II who has a somewhat controversial history in the congo, most of my knowledge of the congo comes from 1 line of we didn't start the fire, and the terrible slash awesome movie with the evil white gorillas and tim curry, and my wonderful episode on mokele embeme, but even a cursory inspection of that history shows it's not great.  Short version is 10 million people died trying to get rubber out of trees because leo decided the congo was his. This exploitation continued until the 19 50s and 60s when the belgians finally gave up the congo to rule their own stuffBut they still wanted the resources, and so did the US, thought we'd get out of this one? NawThe CIA basically immediately assassinated the first prime minister of the new democratic republic of the congoMaybe we'll get into it another time. Like I said, not great.So james jameson tagged along on this trip and there's a lot more to this expedition but the part we're focused on was in may of 1888 in the small village of riba riba, had to double check it wasn't that weird lewd metroidvaniaIn riba riba they were having a festival that was said to end in the consumption of human fleshJameson thought they were full of shit and was like can I see my good man?One of the other people on the expedition, reportedly replied “give me a bit of cloth and we'll see” big jafar vibes like last episode. Jameson calls his bluff and produces 6 handkerchiefs for the tribesman there. Funny that this dude has 6 to SPARE, he probably had a hundred coming out of every pocket This is where it gets gruesome. The wheels of handkerchief cloth trade were already grinding  After this exchange, the dancing comes to a halt, and a young slave girl is brought forward, it is explained that she is a captive from another tribe. 6 napkins goes a long way in 1888Now for the squeamish among you, you may want to skip ahead a minute or two. The girl is killed and eaten, if you're wondering what you're gonna miss, go ahead, I'll be here when you get back. This is a direct quote from the 1890 newspaper the london times reporting on the incident“The girl was tied to a tree,” says Farran, “the natives sharpening their knives the while. One of them stabbed her twice in the belly.“She did not scream, but knew what would happen, looking to the right and left for help. When stabbed she fell dead. The natives cut pieces from her body.“Jameson in the meantime made rough sketches of the horrible scenes. Then we all returned to the child's house. Jameson afterward went to his tent, where he finished his sketches in water colors.“There were six of them, all neatly done. The first sketch was of the girl as she was led to the tree. The second showed her stabbed, with the blood gushing from the wounds. The third showed her dissected. The fourth, fifth, and sixth showed men carrying off the various parts of the bodyFUCK alright if you're back from your time skip you didn't miss anything but gruesome details.And that's when the gossip started, jameson was part of a well to do whiskey magnate family was ripe for being thrown into salacious expose news stories. Couple that with a morbid curiosity of the general public in britain with the “Dark continent” this one had papers flying off the shelves.And the crux of the story? That pretty boy whiskey heir had bought a slave for a pittance just to watch her get eaten That's where all the fact checking comes in, everyone is like well did he buy a slave girl to watch her get eaten? And there's some debate on the semantics of that. Which we'll get to in a minute, BUT there's no fucking debate about the girl gettin killed and eaten. WHICH SEEMS TO BE THE IMPORTANT PART HERE. That happened with just about 100 percent certainty. I feel like we're arguing about the wrong thing with the umm ackshullys hereAfter the horrifying event, the group pressed on with their expeditionThey split into two groups with jameson leading the rear group and another officer leading a forward groupThe second officer was killed by natives, and the belgian authorities caught the guy that did it who was executed when jamesons group arrived in the town behind the first groupVery chaotic expeditionMoving on jameson's section head for the bangala river station down the congo river, They traveled for about a week and a half, through sickly bogs, mires and along the river, through snakes, insect, and possibly giant ancient relic sauropods.Jameson fell ill on that last leg of the river, complications from malaria. That'll do it back then. On august 17 they made it to bangala station after a series of jungle ordeals and after breathing a sigh of relief that he made it to the next town, James jameson promptly died from his illness. He was only 31 He was buried in an unmarked grave deep in the jungleThat's a heroes sendoff for sure, wait till my group starts running tomb of annihilation The problem for jameson, that is, ethel jameson, his now widow, was that the dude, being dead Didn't careHad no way to defend himself or his family from the slanderous pressNewspaperAffadavaitsSo heres were things get muddy. The story got reported by the london times Assad farran affidavit that the story was true, jameson purchased the girl exclusively to watch her get crunched upHe also gives a short description of an orgie that jameson was an interested observer in some accountsLast letter to his wife is just whatever farran says it's a lie and don't let it outNot great denial tbhImmediate retractionEmphaticBecause farran had been fired so he's like lets goo!WATERCOLORS!?LegacyJames jameson lived a wild and crazy short lifeForever tarnished by this cannibalism scandalRelegated to a macabre footnote in history Which is more than most people can sayTHere's recreations of the drawings which are fucked up I'll link them with the notes this weekLost like 50 tabs for research on the mummy stuff so I'm going back through my history for thoseWhat a fucked up storyLessons? Don't eat people, don't call people's bluff all the time, sometimes it isn't a bluff OutroYou guys are the best
